First we got some white and red paper and a cardboard tube. After that we put on some aprons, got some glue and started to cut the paper. We cut both pieces of paper into long strips so they could fit round the tube. Next we glued the strips on in a stripy pattern to look like a lighthouse. Before we started we had looked at pictures so we knew what a lighthouse looks like.
Later on we made a complete circuit using batteries, wires, a light and a battery holder. Then we put our circuit in the lighthouse so the top lit up. We felt excited and chuffed that we got them to light up!
